This Byzantine icon, known in Latin as Salus Populi Romani, is an ancient symbol of Rome. Its history stretches back to its arrival in Rome in the year 590 under Pope St. Gregory the Great (the Dialogist). It is one of the icons believed to have been painted by the Apostle Luke.
The image, which had been darkened by centuries of age, underwent a meticulous restoration that was completed in 2018.
